Tell Dodge to End Its Ringling Promotions

Notorious animal abuser Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus continues to court corporate sponsorships for its cruel circus. Please remind Dodge (which is owned by Chrysler) that Ringling has earned universal condemnation from animal protection organizations, elephant experts, and animal advocates. An increasingly enlightened public is rejecting the notion that a fleeting moment of fun is worth the agony that these magnificent animals are forced to endure daily. Let Dodge know that compassionate consumers are outraged when any company promotes Ringling.
